No asterisk there about PCIe lanes (and turbo boost will still work.) There are no artificially imposed limitations.Asus Strix Z270G page said:Intel® Socket 1151 for 7th/6th Generation Core™ i7/Core™ i5/Core™ i3/Pentium®/Celeron® Processors
Supports Intel® 14 nm CPU
Supports Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0
* The Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 support depends on the CPU types.
Notice both 6th and 7th have DMI 3.0 that connects the chipset. I've been looking at most of them and I've never seen anything mentioned about less than full support.
I'll have a Asus Strix Z270G tomorrow. I'm going to use my i5 6500 in it. This is what the Asus page says:
No asterisk there about PCIe lanes (and turbo boost will still work.) There are no artificially imposed limitations.
On the Strix only the direct to CPU lanes are used for the video card slots, so it's one x16 or two x8. The other lanes are for the other slots and onboard devices.
So no extra lanes available to the chipset then? As I was thinking..
